The document outlines a practical approach for implementing Boolean functions using basic AND, OR, NOT, NAND, and NOR gates in both Sum of Products (SOP) and Product of Sums (POS) forms. It includes learning objectives, required components, and a step-by-step procedure for circuit assembly and testing. The result demonstrates the implementation of the specified Boolean expressions using the mentioned logic gates.

AIM:
Implementation of given Boolean functions using basic gates and universal gates in
both SOP (Sum of Product) and POS (Product of Sum) form.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
- Implement the Boolean function in SOP and POS form using basic gates
AND, OR and NOT.
- Implement the Boolean function in SOP and POS form using NAND and
NOR gate
COMPONENT REQUIRED:
- Logic gates (IC) trainer kit.
- Connecting patch chords.
- IC 7432, IC 7408, IC 7404, IC 7400, IC 7402
Sr. No. Component Specification
1 NOT gate IC7404
2 AND gate IC7408
3 OR gate IC7432
4 NAND gate IC 7400
5 NOR gate IC7402
THEORY:
SOP (Sum of Product): A sum of product is the logical OR of multiple product
term. Each product term is the AND of binary literal. A literal is a Boolean
variable or its complement.
Logic function: Y=
